An exceptional two-bedroom warehouse apartment extending to approximately 910 sq ft, set within the ever-popular Bow Quarter, one of East London’s most iconic and architecturally significant residential enclaves.

Originally the site of the Bryant and May match factory, the estate occupied over seven acres and operated from the mid-19th century through much of the 20th century. In 1988, the site was acquired by Kentish Homes, with ORMS Architects appointed to reimagine the former factories, cottages and ancillary buildings into a pioneering residential community. Bow Quarter remains one of East London’s earliest and most successful regeneration projects, defined by its landscaped gardens, strong sense of place and preserved industrial character.

This apartment is located within Manhattan Building, dating back to 1909–1910, originally constructed as part of the factory complex. The building enjoys a prime position overlooking the communal terrace, swimming pool and residents’ gym. The apartment itself occupies a tower position, benefitting from double-aspect, south-west light to the living space, with large factory windows that flood the space with natural light throughout the day.

The apartment has undergone a comprehensive refurbishment, creating a refined yet highly functional home with a boutique, design-led feel that sits comfortably within the building’s industrial heritage.

The accommodation centres around a dramatic open-plan living space with over four-metre double-height ceilings, original-style factory windows and solid wood flooring throughout. A beautifully designed kitchen and dining area has been carefully planned to maximise both form and function, featuring marble-effect worktops, contemporary floor tiling and a substantial central island that anchors the space without compromising the generous dining area.

The bathroom is positioned on the main living level and finished to the same high standard, while two well-proportioned double bedrooms sit on the mezzanine level, each enjoying gallery views across the living space below. Storage has been intelligently integrated throughout, including bespoke under-stair cupboards and a walk-in wardrobe at mezzanine level.

Bow Quarter is widely regarded as one of the East London’s most desirable loft developments, offering an unrivalled suite of residents’ amenities including, a fully equipped gym, swimming pool, jacuzzi and sauna, parcel collection service, landscaped communal gardens and terraces, a 24-hour concierge team, a café and its own exceptionally well-stocked on-site supermarket.

Transport connections are excellent, with Bow Church DLR and Bow Road Underground Station both a short walk away, providing swift access to Canary Wharf, the City and the West End in under 30 minutes.
